A lightweight rigid housing and baseplate structure for a seismic transducer. The baseplate (12) includes a central hub (26) for receiving a lower piston rod (76). Upper and lower skin plates (32 and 36) extend radially outward from the central hub (26). A plurality of equally angularly spaced reinforcing plates (40) also extend radially outward from the hub (26) and have their upper and lower edges rigidly connected to the upper and lower skin plates. A housing assembly (78) rigidly connects an upper piston rod (74) to the baseplate (12), and includes a frusto-conical section (82). The light weight rigid housing (78) and baseplate (12) structure provides a seismic transducer having in-phase force distribution over substantially the entire area of the baseplate as it is engaged with the earth. |
